Well, you see, my mom is mad at me for having low grades. She blames me for being too lazy. She keeps telling me stories that their mom and dad teached them to do their homework and din't have to help, so why should she. They keep saying my brother and I are a failure in school. But when I ask them if they think were a failure she denies it she keeps explaining that it's not what she means. But I'll get to the point here, my mom taught me idek but about just 48% in life. And she expects me to be perfect? What the fck? Sorry for the words but yeah.
How do I talk to her about this cause she's been in a really bad mood lately. And I have been cutting myself because my mom thinks I'm not good enough. I mean she can't expect me to act like the way she did when she was my age! In my generation, I hate to say this, but you have to fit in! Imagine letting a person from 1887 teach a human in 2014 how to live! I'm sorry for the explaination for being too mesy but I hope you get it. And, I've been bullied recently (my mom knows and she's doing something about it) so I, too, get depressed. I cut myself, a lot. I mean, I don't give her additional problems, but why she giving me some? :( I feel so enraged to the point that I want to leave the house with all my stuff and scream at my mom. You get me? :(
I think that probably most of moms are like your mom coz my mom is like that too. However, they are just being like that because they want us to achieve more.
I understand you. And cutting is not a solution to that. When I was highschool, I used to be an honour student but when I was senior I wasn\'t able to get into the honour roll coz I did something stupid and almost kicked me out. And my mom almost killed me and I tried to commit suicide alot. Your mom is teaching you lessons in here generation to your generation and it feels like it\'s so sucks. However you still need to listen because it is good for you.
You need to talk to your mom about it. Tell your mom that it is hurting you. And also tell your mom that telling you and your brother about being failure is causing you suicidal thoughts. However, you need to study harder and next grading you should get higher grades to impress your mom. I mean that you don\'t need to impress her all the time to be called a perfect daughter but to prove her wrong that you\'re not a failure.
Stop cutting yourself, it\'ll just make you a total failure. I know that you are smart kid. Try to achieve more of what you can and if it so, then your mom will be so proud of you.
Your mom is a good mom and just want you to aim more. And she is proud of you however she just wants you to get higher grades and achieve more so she is being like that. You need to understand your mom.
Hope this help.
